Abstract
A card connector adapted for receiving an electrical card therein includes an insulating housing, a plurality of terminals disposed to the insulating housing, a lower shielding shell and an upper shielding shell. The insulating housing has two flanks of which each defines a receiving groove penetrating through a bottom thereof, and a perforation penetrating through a top thereof and communicating with the receiving groove. The lower shielding shell covered under the insulating housing has two lateral plates. A top of each lateral plate is bent sideward to form a second buckling piece located in the receiving groove. The upper shielding shell covered on the insulating housing has a top plate of which each side edge protrudes downward to form an L-shaped first buckling piece passing through the corresponding perforation to buckle the second buckling piece of the lower shielding shell.
